Hello list,

just my 2 cents and short "snipplet" of a bash script:

<!---snip myconversion.sh ---->

# Remember that $TEMPDIR2 and $VIDEOROOT2 
# have to be in wine format (e.g. z:\...)


declare PVASRC="merge
\"$VIDEOROOT2\\$CURRENTLINE\\$CURRENTDATE\001.vdr\""
declare PVADEST="$TEMPDIR2\\$TEMPFILE" 

declare -i i=1
while i=i+1; test $i -le 9; do  # I usually don't have more than 3 files
  if test -f 00$i.vdr;
    then
    declare PVASRC="$PVASRC
\"$VIDEOROOT2\\$CURRENTLINE\\$CURRENTDATE\00$i.vdr\"";
  fi
done

<!---snap myconversion.sh---> 

"myconversion.sh" is just a quick and dirty bash script that does the
conversion to divx for me. Probably it is better to use Martin
Hoffmann's scripts, which -- in this case -- seem to work in a similar
way...
